Sumo Citrus\u00ae is back in stores, now through April. Whether you\u2019re discovering this enormously delicious fruit for the first time and want to know why it\u2019s the most exciting thing in the produce aisle or you\u2019re a Super-Fan in search of more info about your \u201chealthy obsession,\u201d read on.<\/p>\n

Sumo Citrus is a type of oversize mandarin that\u2019s known as a \u201cdekopon\u201d in Japan, where our California-grown fruit traces its roots. This unique hybrid arrived in the US over a decade before the first fruit made it to stores near you. Why did it take so long? These fruits are a little weird, enormously delicious and the most difficult citrus to cultivate. Find out more about our dedicated growers and their commitment to non-GMO, regenerative farming<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s what else sets Sumo Citrus apart from other citrus.<\/p>\n

Incredibly sweet<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

“Enormously delicious” isn\u2019t hyperbole — Sumo Citrus is one of the sweetest citruses there is. The burst of sweetness is something newcomers notice immediately. What\u2019s more? Sumo Citrus is high in fiber and vitamin C, making it a healthy, filling replacement for sugary snacks.<\/p>\n

Seedless<\/strong>
\nThere\u2019s one thing missing from Sumo Citrus: seeds! Your favorite fruit is seedless, so you can snack without worrying about biting into a bitter seed. While most Super-Fans prefer to snack on Sumo Citrus, you can also integrate their juicy sweetness into your favorite smoothies, salads and more. With no seeds, there\u2019s no additional prep work! <\/p>\n

Easy-to-peel<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Part of what gives Sumo Citrus its unique (OK, weird!) look is the bumpy skin that feels somewhat loose. Turns out, that feature isn\u2019t only aesthetic! The skin is super easy-to-peel, with no mess, so it\u2019s also easy-to-eat at home or on the go.<\/p>\n

Top KnotTM<\/sup><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

That bump on top is another way to spot the real deal. From a mild mound to a pronounced bump, on every Sumo Citrus, you\u2019ll find a Top Knot. Look for it when you\u2019re scouring the produce aisle trying to find your favorite fruit.<\/p>\n

Non-GMO<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The care that goes into cultivating Sumo Citrus extends beyond appearance and flavor. Our growers prune each tree by hand for more sunlight, then harvest each fruit one at a time, using small totes and a floating line system to prevent bruising. And, Sumo Citrus is always non-GMO!<\/p>\n

See for yourself what makes Sumo Citrus a little weird but enormously delicious!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
